(Baonghean.vn) - As the year draws to a close, ships from Region 4 of the Vietnam Navy begin delivering goods and Tet gifts to islands and islets to serve officers and soldiers celebrating Tet. However, to get the banana leaves, pork, and bamboo tubes to these locations, the transport forces have overcome many hardships and dangers due to rough seas and the unique topographical features of the islands and islets.
A series of photos taken by reporters from Nghe An Newspaper along the journey:
